Embodiment Construction

[0029]Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the exemplary embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art. In the drawings, lengths and sizes of layers and regions may be exaggerated for clarity.

[0030]It will be understood that when an element or layer is referred to as being on another element or layer, the element or layer can be directly on another element or layer or intervening elements or layers. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being directly on another element or layer, there are no intervening elements or layers present. Like numbers refer to like elements throughout. As used h...

Abstract

Provided are a reflective unit using an electroactive polymer and a flexible display. The reflective unit includes: an electroactive polymer layer which becomes strained when a voltage is applied thereto by an electrode; a light reflecting unit reflecting external light and having reflecting cells arranged on the electroactive polymer layer to be spaced apart from one another wherein a distance between the reflecting cells is changed according to the strain of the electroactive polymer layer; and a light blocking layer preventing external light from being reflected by the light reflecting unit and having blocking cells arranged over the light reflecting unit to be spaced apart from one another.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2007-0050264, filed on May 23, 2007, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]Apparatuses consistent with the present invention relates to a reflective unit using an electroactive polymer and a flexible display employing the reflective unit, and more particularly, to a reflective unit using an electroactive polymer that becomes strained when a voltage is applied thereto and a flexible display employing the reflective unit and having a rapid response to an input signal and high contrast.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]With the rapid development of communication technologies and display apparatuses, various kinds of portable terminals have been introduced. Examples of portable terminals include personal digital...
